General Resources to Include the Five Elements​

There are numerous resources available to young adults to incorporate song, symbol, service, story, and spirit into their studies. We encourage families to seek out resources in their own communities to include in their learning experiences. We offer some general resources below:

HISTORY Through the Ages Historical Timeline Figures help put the puzzle of history together. They allow you to follow across eras of time using illustrated figures to represent people and events key to world history. Using them on a wall will allow you to see the global picture, or you can use them in a notebook for portability that will become both a valuable resource and treasured keepsake!​

WonderMap: Great resource provided as a download or CD Rom that allows you to customize maps according to the region you are studying. Available from Bright Ideas Press. Also available at Rainbow Resource.

If you enjoy listening to music while you study, while you work, or if you simply enjoy meditating with music in the background, you will find the music from Wholetones to be soothing, stress relieving, and energizing. Click here to learn more.

This beautifully orchestrated production of Lamb Of God by the London Symphony Orchestra will lift and inspire. No matter what Christian denomination you belong to, you will love this! The motifs are very clever, and the feeling the composer and symphony put in it are astounding, especially on the songs "Make Me Whole" and "Lord, is it I?" "Gethsemane" is another great piece, with the cello representing the Lord. Wonderful messages from the last week of the Savior Jesus Christ. Available on Amazon.

This set of books was a part of my childhood, and instilled in me a love of reading that persists to this day. Each volume begins at a grade level---One being the easiest to Twelve being suitable for high-school level reading. There are selections from some of the finest writers, such as Jonathan Swift, Robert Louis Stevenson, and Rudyard Kipling, as well as fairy tales and folk legends from all around the world, both East and West.
